Loaded up on oil filters for my Tundra...$3 each with free shipping and not tax! Picked up a couple engine air filters for $15 while was at it. Also got a PVC hose, and a couple clamps and hose guides to tidy up the engine compartment. Thanks again for the tip!
Only if you guys knew how many OEM Toyota parts I ordered.
Certain items are cheaper buying OEM with this % off discount and the right dealership to purchase from, and certain items are a must, like control arms, motor mounts, and ball joints, because the labor for them is not worth redoing with aftermarket over and over again.
but sway bar end links, tie rods, and complete strut assemblies with lifetime warranties are way less than half the price even with these discounts and their labor is easy so you could use aftermarket to save some money if you can DIY.
Denso or AISIN are good alternatives for the cost as well.
Toyota engine air filters can be cheaper than Denso with these deals and I would only use OEM or Denso
The Toyota oil filter is just okay, plenty of good aftermarket alternatives.

Thanks for posting this. I'm going to wait for 20%.
I ordered a few important items (sensor connectors) but I will wait for the 25% off, whenever that is.
Big brain energy here! I haven’t seen a 25% off in a while. I would love to be wrong. And soon!
okay, small brain energy.
The last 25% off was the week of 11/25 - 12/2, I can wait for a few months...
So the latest 25% off sale ended Monday (June 9th). I had placed an order for 2 sets of wipers (actual OEM not the Sightline junk) with Serra Toyota of Decatur (AL) and now have the items in hand. If I am calculating correctly I was able to get the wipers about 48% off list price (25% off sale plus the usual Serra Toyota of Decatur (approximately) 31% off list price discount). And FREE shipping. Better deal than RockAuto, right ?!?
I was rather surprised that I was not charged either Alabama sales tax or the sales tax of my state (as expected with Amazon). So I researched the matter on Grok and ChatGPT. You guys probably already know all about this, but apparently states usually do not collect their own sales taxes (or sales taxes of the destination state) on (internet) sales made by in-state entities to out-of-state residents IF two conditions are met (Per the 2018 Supreme Court ruling, South Dakota v. Wayfair):
- The entity making the sale lacks any kind of physical presence (the legal term is "nexus") within the destination state, AND
- The overall volume of sales to a particular destination state does not exceed (either) $100,000 in annual sales (or) 200 total number of annual transactions thresholds (the legal term is "economic nexus").
Some states (such as Alabama) also impose what is called a "common carrier exemption" requirement. That is, entities must utilize a "common carrier" (UPS, FedEx, USPS etc.) to make deliveries to out-of-state buyers (while also separately stating any shipping charges as a distinct line item on any invoices) in order to avoid having to collect (their) state sales taxes. Buyers themselves entering the borders of another state to make an in-store pickup are subject to the sales tax of that state.
This is one reason why entities such as Amazon.com collects the sales taxes of (their) buyer's state - Amazon may or may not have a physical presence within a particular state (warehouses etc.) but they (of course) exceed the overall sales volume thresholds. Amazon.com is also very visible to (state) Department of Revenue agencies. A out-of-state car dealership is perhaps not quite so visible.
Under such circumstances out-of-state buyers would still be legally responsible for self-reporting the transaction and paying the sales tax (or what is called a "use tax") of their state, but you know......
